1.2 Oracle Structures and
How They Affect Installation
As can be seen from the previous section, an
Oracle database is not a simple construct. Much thought must go into
file placement, size, number of control files, and numerous other
structural issues before installation. It is a testament to the
resiliency of the Oracle RDBMS that even if most of the decisions
are made incorrectly, the database that results will still function,
albeit, inefficiently.
The structures are as follows:
* Oracle executables
* Datafiles—data, index, temporary,
rollback
* Redo logs
* Control files
* Export files
* Archive logs
* Placement of any large object (LOB) or
BFILE storage structures
